Lancashire 6 down very early... forecast poor today, but should be a few days play expected, albeit on and off. Draw price still at 4.0...
Thoughts, cricket experts? -
SH V RR
Exactly the same set up as the match before, so I was determined not to get in too early. Only difference was SH were tracking ahead in comparison. Waited until the 10th over where SH were 1.3 but while bet was being placed, prices plummeted and missed out. Within 6 balls price dropped to 1.04
Because this is Sunrisers who could still loose from here, I placed a lay at 1.04 and got out at the 15th over at 1.1

@jonathan-busch no ones perfect mate I’m certainly not
Easy to say now after your post
But win lose or draw
First trade a back bet in the 1’2’s I’d avoid
Strike rate needs to be too good overall and in this format both teams can trade in the 1.2’s within overs -
RCB V MI
Another trade to chalk up some experience
Got on MI in the 9th over at 1.22. Little value, high risk. Justification being they only needed 93 in 11 overs, and by 10th over they were tracking to have knocked off 50% of the target. Although there was probably a degree of FOMO here. If I'm getting in at these odds, I need to be certain that they are going to win, and there was still a long way to go in this match. The score/wicket comparison at this point was essentially the same so given 166 is a defendable score on this ground, it would have been better and less risky to lay here. Or at least wait. Got out around 2.0
Put what was left of my stake on RCB in the 15th at 1.26 when required rate was 13 from here. Could/should have got on earlier but having Pollard there made me hesitate, even though he wasn't set yet. Got to get that 'fanboy' aspect out of my trading as well.

@james-woodroffe ropeable just knew max and ab back to back balls f**k me
Kholi is actually the issue
50 off 40 is sad really -
@nathan-bennett RCB really need to sort this 11-20 over problem. It could well cost them a play off place.

ENG LAY 1.06
Aim here is 1.18likely a giveaway and may green at 1.06 now and move on
-
@tom agree
-
With pre match lay odds of 1.34 for England Women I was hoping that NZ would bat first this morning, however with lay odds on England now 1.18 after just 9 overs I’m happy to jump in here.

KKR looking good as far as runs on board
two slices of luck
still holding
could be a situation back on fall of wickets late as maybe irrelevant to likely big total -
Punjab V Sunrisers:
Not a great trade. Backed Punjab @ 1.50 at 12 over mark when Sunrisers were struggling and needed 8-9/over.
At 15th Over SH had a set batsmen in SAHA but I doubted with his strike rate he could get them over the line. Should have bailed at this point as this is when the markets flipped within 2 6's from Jason Holder.Lesson learnt: Follow the rule: Back the chasing team with set batsmen in last 5 with a manageable target. Or in this case, bail. They may not win but there could be a good swing

Are these the type of pitch’s World Cup be played on
Maybe Bangladesh should be favs ha -
Back of DC was good

Good to be back in the forum
I have been spending time getting to grips with The T20 markets, using practice mode in The Hundred and micro-stakes in the CPL. Trading The Hundred didn't really help my confidence, but things started to make a bit more sense to me in the CPL.
So looking forward to learning more during the IPL and WC, still using low stakes
Getting back in the thread, I was immediately drawn to Darri's clarification/explaination of his strategy and it cleared up a few areas for me and mistakes I have been making.
Simple trade today with no hiccups. Backed Chennai at the start of the second innings at 1.39. Based on this being a below par score in any cricket ground, let alone Sharjah. All milestones reached. I did add to it because of this at 1.10, and I'm not sure if this is is good value going forward, but everything was under control, and 10 ticks is 10 ticks?
